I went to Turkey for 10 days, And I'm the only Bari Sax player in our freshman band. So, apparently, while I was gone, the only Tenor Sax player wasn't playing our solo right so he (our conductor) stopped everyone and turned to my empty seat and said, "Emily! Play louder!"
When I got back from the trip and played the solo right (which I'd been doing for weeks before I left >_>) He shouted above everyone "EMILY! WHATEVER YOU ATE IN TURKEY MADE YOU PLAY BETTER!"

My band instructor says some weird stuff.
Every time we make a mistake he says, "How fascinating ..."
or when a substitute is going to be in the next day he calls him/her the soup de sur (I can't spell it, but it's soup of the day in French).

H: DO IT.
Me: I'm not good at improv, though.

Me: You're gonna be there this time?
H: Yeah. Unless I get sick or something...
Me: Or hit by a truck...
H: Yeah...HEY! >_>
Me: *bell rings* Later, H. XD
Skyelar: *warming up on her bass trombone*

LuLs. My BD's husband (who is a band director for another school) came in one day and said, "We need a breeding chamber for the tuba section..."
Really, it's not that funny when you read it, but it was hilarious. The look on the girl's face back there was priceless.

one day we were playing liberty march mr. chavis (our bd) goes over the flutes because this missed a stickato(sp?) anyways, he told them to mark it with blue, yellow, or blood so they dont forget it. then he starts talking about keeping ur own blood and he is not a vamp.
when we were playing deir in de...mr.sealy(bd) comes in and told us the first clarinets to put a pinky down for d flat and everyone started at me to show it...but i wasnt paying attention...so mr. sealy took my clarinet and showed everyone were to put the pinky down and said "duh"

Hartmetz: NO! Ryan! We were all going great until you played the solo out of time! It was like we were a train going along the tracks and doing alright until suddenly---THERE'S A BRICK WALL WHERE YOU MESSED UP.
Ryan: ...um...o_o; Okay...
Hartmetz: Don't screw up, it makes you look bad. Also, measure 55 was too legato. This is LATIN JAZZ, not Chopin. >:l
...H is crazier in the morning than any other time of day.

lmao i dont know if i can even come close to topping any of these but heres one of my favorites::
Mr Plank[[bd]] was asking anyone who had the melody at an 8 bar phrase to play. I had it but some flute[[who failed miserably, is a senior, and doesnt understand the concept of accidentals]] started playing first.
MP: Okay..see...that was good. Minus the tone problems, tuning, accidentals, and style.....
..*silence...
You know we better just have someone else play that...
He looked so awkward because im not sure he realized he insulted her till the end. He does that a lot though...

Yesterday, at lessons,in my Blue book [aka, SOE 2.] there's this song called "Oats,Peas and Beans". Mr.H: What kind of song is that?! Who would call a song that? It's like calling a song "Green Beans,Cauliflower and Lima beans!".. xDD
